A repercussão geral e o Direito do Trabalho

Abstract

The essay finds to face some fundamental aspects about the general repercussion, a new requirement of appeal admissibility, which it was consecrated by Constitutional Amendment n° 45/2004 and regulated by the Law n° 11.418/2006.Indeed, we faced the historical aspects relative to its creation and its conceptualization, as well as those inherent to the procedure, as knowledge: judgment of admissibility, requirement’s obligation and demonstration, competence to judgment, powers of law reporters and Supreme Court’s Plenary, quorumand moment for its appreciation, beginnings about the judgment and the possibility of amicus curiae intervention. Besides, we looked across the hypothesis of multiplicity of appeals –general repercussion by sample –and the new powers conferred to the Ministers and to the Ordinary Court. Finally, we analyzed the recent decisions about whether or not the new requirement was fulfilledand the resulting judgments in labor matters
